Before reviewing this material, I wasn’t sure what to expect, especially when it came to learning models and their practical relevance. I had some knowledge about factors that influence learning, but I hadn’t really considered how different models might impact both learners and teachers in real-time settings. I approached the material with curiosity but also a bit of uncertainty.
Now, after going through the material, my understanding has evolved significantly. The discussion of key factors influencing learning—such as learner motivation, environment, and teaching methods—helped me see learning as a dynamic process shaped by various external and internal elements. Moreover, the refreshment of my knowledge of learning models like Kolb’s Experiential Learning Cycle and Honey and Mumford’s learning styles has sparked my interest again in how these frameworks can guide reflective practice. I now recognise that learning is most effective when learners are actively involved, and the different models emphasise engagement in a practical and theoretical sense.
At this point, I am curious about how I can apply these models in my personal and professional practice. Specifically, I want to explore writing as a tool for reflection, especially as I begin to integrate models like Kolb’s cycle into my work. Additionally, I realise I need to read more about how these theories can be adapted to different learning environments, particularly virtual ones, as these were briefly mentioned in the class.
